I have looked everywhere and tried everything - Windows 7 WILL NOT connect to my HD2

I have tried changing the fast sync option
I have removed everything from the computer and re-installed.
I have hard reset my HD2.
I have restored my computer to before i bought the HD2 and let windows figure out that it needs to install WMDC - then let it download itself and install it.
I have tried every USB port on my computer and also bought a powered USB hub and tried that.
After all installs it just simply wont let me make a partnership or anything.
I don't know what to do anymore. I WANT ME SOME NEW ROMS!!!! please help me out. Other than things to get Windows 7 to work - is there a way to flash hardSPL2 / roms without USB?
I appreciate any help given and i have searched the forums here and all over the net. If i missed that one special trick that my computer needs i do apologize.

I had the same problem with Win 7, however when I unchecked the faster connection option on HD2 it connected, although in Win7 it had a red x in mobile connection, but on the HD2 a connection had been established.

is formatting your PC an option?

Firewall?
I have three Windows 7 machines (32 & 64) and all connect without any problem. Disconnect from your internet connection. Turn off your anti-virus and firewall and give it a shot. Do you get the window that asks how you want to connect when you plug in your cable? Do you have a functioning cable? Just because it charges does not mean it will connect for data. Will it connect to an XP machine?

Have you tried a different usb cable? That's the only other thing I can think of that might be the problem.

HD2 on Windows 7 Ultimate
Hi
Had the same problem, and it turned out that the USB-cable i used, was the problem.
I used the cable that followed the 12v Car Charger, and that did no good, so I went and got the cable that came in the package (chargercable) and then it was Christmas and halloween alltogether.
Works like a charm!

@djchubbs yes i have turned that off as well - along with windows firewall
@ozkaya - no formatting my pc is not an option
@johnboatcat - When i plug it in the phone instantly asks me what kind of connection i want (file transfer or active sync with the checkbox option for faster sync as well). It transfers files just fine in file transfer mode as well.
@zarathustrax i have not tried a different USB cable as i dont have access to one. I doubt something is wrong with mine however i will have to see if i can get one somewhere.
@kongsvada Only cable i have is the one that came in the box factory from HTC
Again thank you for all the replies! I really really am trying to get this to work. I have my home computer which i do everything on but i tried my friends laptop today - it has the same exact build of windows 7 on it as my home computer (if that matters) and it will not sync or let me make a partnership or anything. I plugged it in, it downloaded WMDC and installed etc, restarted the computer and plugged it in, went to active sync mode and WMDC or the sync center do not recognize it at all. Since i cant find it in sync center i cant create a partnership.

OK, let me help you on this if flashing a new ROM will be your immediate task.
1) Just download the ROM that you like and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh
2) Make sure you've HSPL your LEO first.
3) Copy the renamed file into the root of your memory card.
4) Press the VOL down button simultaneously while turning ON your LEO.
5) Just follow the onscreen instructions on your LEO.
6) That's it.
the only problem that I can sense for you now is to HSPL your device because it does require connection with your PC. To bypass this connection with PC thing, do this;
a) Turn OFF your LEO.
b) Turn ON while pressing the VOL Down button together and it will enter the bootloader mode (TRICOLOR Screen).
c) At the bottom of your LEO, it will says "serial"
d) Now, connect the cable to your LEO and and your PC, the words will change to "Usb"
e) Let your PC do its work by installing the necessary driver automatically.
f) When it is done, run the HSPL program your PC. You can download it from this wonderful forum (Please search for it in the ROM development section)
g) Let the program finish and you can see something on your LEO screen in the process. Just look at it and let it finish. DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR LEO (I don't want you to brick your device).
h) When everything is done, reset your LEO and this time press the VOL Down button. This is to go back to the bootloader mode and to check whether the HSPL has been install correctly.
i) then go back to the steps (1 to 6) above to flash your new ROM.
Enjoy,
please post your result and help others too.

I had the same problem with my new computer which happend to be running windows 7 (everything was fine on my old xp machine). After much searching and trouble shooting the problem eventually came down to a setting on the motherboard (something to do with the p55 chipset). After I'd turned the c-state option on in the bios I've had no further issues.
It's a long shot but perhaps it will help you too

ok this sounds promising - i will try it this weekend when i have the time - i greatly appreciate the help and i will post results to let everyone know!
thank you all and like i said - will be trying your way soon mmorisa!

I had to change a registry setting on Windows 7 to get it to connect to my HD2... Of course I cant remember the setting, it may be this one

This worked great! I knew about bootloader screen, i knew i could flash from the SD card but i didn't know how to put them together. Thank you very very much for the help, now off to flashing roms!
One simple - probably stupid question:
I have seen TMOUS compatible on a few roms, however i will then read for that same rom that it is 576 ONLY - And then in another rom thread i see the creator of the rom say TMOUS compatible and then "TMOUS=1024". So what one is it!? just trying to be safe
Again - thank you all so much for the help - i really appreciate everyone that tried to help!
Edit: Just flashed the Evo rom to the phone, plugged it in and BAMN im able to sync with WMDC immediately - so thank you all so so much - super happy now with my 1024 leo!

slowestcivic,
I feel happy that you managed to do it and flash your favorite ROM with the guides I wrote.
at least i can see another smile from another happy LEO user.
best regards and don't forget to help others too.

Also running Office 2010 beta can cause active sync issues

yeah i have 2007 outlook so that wasnt thr problem. Still not sure what was wrong with it but after flashing a new rom all is well

I had the same trouble with win7. What i did after i tryed evrything i could think of was dowloading the latest active sync from Microsoft. Restarted and plugged the phone in and it worked

[Q] OMG....Someone please help......

Morning....I have HTC HD2, Flashed with current 1.11 MAGDLR and Radio 2.15. I have Flashed NexusHD2-Froyo_V1.9a_NAND and would like to update to current NexusHD2 build. However, when the bootloader is entered into, and Flasher is selected, phone will see USB, but when hooked to PC and DAF is selected to Run in Admin, I get a Error mess, that the computer is not seeing the USB and connecting.
Now seeing that I am VERY new at this.....I don't understand too much about Task 29 or things like that I have read about as far as a fix for the Error. But I cannot seem to find anyone that can tell me how to either fix the issue, or a solution around the problem so that I can either load another ROM or load the update.
I guess I should also add that my phone is running Android from the root side of the phone and not a dual boot with Windows still intact. I think that was important to add somewhere I read.
THanks for any help anyone can give me......
Micki

I had the same problem, when you open the file and it should be daf.exe file or install.exe file, you have to extract that file the a new folder on your computer and then open it from within the folder with right click and use as administrator!!!! worked for me..let me know...

This doesn't belong in the NAND development forum!

Not able to make a usb connection to the phone when in Magldr
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)
Go to the Activesync icon in the bottom right corner, right click on it and untick the option "Allow usb connections" and then connect the device again. Run daf.exe (or install.exe) as administrator by right clicking on it and selecting the option (if using Windows7 or Vista). Hopefully the usb drivers will then install and the Android Rom will flash.
Another option could be to uninstall and reinstall Activesync or to try different usb ports on your pc. If that doesnt work and you have Windows XP then you need to try on a machine with Vista or Windows 7.
If none of this works then try taking out your micro SD Card and repeating the process or flash a Custom Rom before you flash Magldr rather than a Stock Rom.
Lastly you could try starting the NAND installer with the phone unplugged and then plugged the phone in. The installer should immediately detect your device and proceed to flash.

[Q] USB connection problem - Donation & eternal gratitude for the solution!

Hi everybody,
I hope you can help me because I really can't find the solution:
When I connect my HD2 WP7-device to my computer it charges, but isn't recognized.
- Zune won't start automatically and won't find any device.
- Device Manager doesn't show any unknown device or something that could be my phone.
What I have tried so far:
- Used a XP3 and W7 x64 machine (also ones without any history with a WP7-phone)
- Used a lot of different cables
- Used a lot of different USB-ports
- reinstalled WP7
- reinstalled zune
- (de)installed activesync
- I'm not sure, but first I had a dual-boot solution with Android and I recall USB also didn't work there.
I started to think the USB-connection of my phone might be broken, but when I use MAGDLR, the USB works as mass storage and I can also use the USB flasher. The Bootloader also works, so I tried the following:
- (using bootloader) restored the HD2 in its original state with a official stock ROM and original (locked) HSPL
- Installed a Android ROM: the USB also does NOT work with WM6.5 or Android.
Does anyone know anything I can try now? And Yes, I have read all of the threads of other people with USB-issues and the MS-solutions, but none of them had the solution for me...
Coffee-donation for whoever has the golden tip

Hello guys, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I am facing a similar issue.
I installed the LEO70 ROM on my HD2 when it first came out, and forgot all about it. I now want to install the NoDo (7932) update to test it out (and maybe move permanently to an Android ROM eventually when I decide I don't like it). I am facing an issue; I want to upgrade my MagLDR to 1.13 (from 1.12) and ROMUpdateUtility doesn't recognize my phone, giving me the 'Error 260 - Connection' error.
I did remove Windows Mobile Device Center a month or two ago... could this be the problem? I have the latest Zune software installed on my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x86-64) machine, and when I plug in the phone, Zune automatically starts and recognizes my phone, telling me there's a phone update available (from February that I need to install to enable future updates). I know it will kill my phone, so I won't install it. Also, USBMassStorage mode works nicely.
Any ideas?

Hi sclip,
I don't mind if you try to find an answer to your problem too, but it seems like a different one, because mine does work in bootloader/magdlr-mode.
BTW. I just installed the stock WM6.5 Rom of HTC, and USB still doesn't work! Can it be the radio of hardSPL or is it just broken?

****, after installing the stock WM6.5, it won't install another Radio/MAGDLR using bootloader, it stucks at the 0%.
I think I might haved destroyed my HD2

remember to HSPL it once you have installed your original Stock rom

That did the trick, thanks. To bad it didn't help my USB problem...

since youve tried just about everything else try this
try using USBDVIEW and delete all the USB drivers
also install it on a different PC that hasnt had WP7 connected to it before
to continue with fault testing will requirer us to rule out the PC or the phone, at the mo it could be anything.
since you have Windows 7 install the XP virtual machine and use that, i believe the VM now supports pass through on USB so it should work, i have an old IrDA adaptor that wont install on my w7 PC but it will on the XP VM

Thanks for the USBDVIEW-tip, quite a nice piece of software! However it didn't help me with my problem. Using a computer which never had WP7 connected before didn't help either...

[Q] HTC HD2 USB doesn't detect with MAGLDR

Hello,
I recently purchased HTC HD2 from someone. It came to me with Android 2.2 froyo installed in it through NAND. Now when I am trying to put ICS replacing froyo or when I am trying to put WINMO 7.5 Mango along with android it doesn't detect USB device connection.
All other features are working perfectly like, phone charging through USB, USB detection for SD card etc.
USB doesn't detect only when I try to run through MAGLDR. For example: when I am switching ON my phone by pressing Voume down key along with power key, colourful screen appears with "SERIAL" written on it. Now when I connect phone to my PC through USB it doesn't change to "USB" from "SERIAL".
Also when I am switching ON my phone by continuously pressing power key to get into MAGLDR mode and trying to flash using the 5th option "USB Flasher Mode", here also I can see just "Wait USB…" rather as per the tutorials it should display "Wait USB…USB".
Now because of this issue I am unable to use my HD2 using WINMO or with any other android OS.
Please help with any option so as I can use the USB feature or to install different OS. My motiv behind purchasing this set was only the customization I can do with the phone. Now without which my motive is getting failed.. Please help me guys :crying: ..
Thanks,
Harjeet

What's your PC setup?
A few things,,
In wmdc untick allow USB connections,, the wmdc that comes with vista/win7 isn't the latest version, Google the Microsoft wmdc page and manually download+install, try not to use a 64 bit windows machine if you have the option, (winxp for preference), running an os through any virtual machine type setup can be problematic, try different USB ports, for magldr it needs the android drivers,,,they can be found in various ways, they're linked in the nand toolkit thread, or I think installing "myphoneexplorer " on the PC installs them too, or Google the android sdk (that's a long and complicated way to get them)

Thanks for replying..
First thing.. Do I need to install WMDC when I am not having windows OS itself in my phone? This is just a question because as per my knowledge I don't need to install WMDC unless I am using windows in my Mobile.
At present mobile is purely an android phone with android OS installed in NAND.
And yes I am having Windows XP 32 bit with me. I already tried with different data cables and in different USB slots but USB connection for installing new OS doesn't work. Other then this all other features of USB are working perfectly.
Please revert in case my opinion is wrong.
Thanks,
Harjeet

no its not, its a windows mobile phone with a hacked winmo bootloader allowing it to run a custom bootloader (magldr or clk) which enables android to run.
Anything you do in the winmo bootloader (stripey screen - hspl, task29/flashing magldr/flashing stock roms, flashing radios - ) all requires windows mobile usb drivers.
Anything you do from the magldr screen requires android usb drivers.

Hey Sam,
I can't believe it.. I was wrong.. Just installed Active Sync and tried again.. It worked..
You were right.. Thanks a ton champ..

Hello all.
When you've got some problems with you datacable via phone/pc is also this a solution.
Be sure you've make a copy of your SD-card and after when you copied SD to PC (harddisc) via datacable or cardreader and after this you gonna formatting your SD-card or you buy a new SD-card.
Then put new or formatted SD-card into your phone and started it up in bootloadermenu (colorscreened) <volume down> and after this you wil see now in place only "serial" changed into "USB".
I'll be hope that this wil working.
I've my HTC HD2 also working when i fixed this.
HTC HD2 / PACman Android version 4.1.2 (latest version) / Magldr 1.13 / CWM recovery 3.2.0.0 <this combine works very simple and als this Android rom is stable and fast without automatically rebooting time.
For more you've check <HTC HD2 Android roms>
I wish you good luck with your phone...

i have the same problem

I had the same problem on my Windows 7 x64. Then I tried to connect HD2 to my older Win XP notebook and there it worked. So I found somewhere, I should update drivers in my Windows 7 system. I downloaded file "drvupdate-amd64.exe" from Microsoft (search in Google for "Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver for Windows Vista (64-bit)"), installed it and then it started to work (it took a while, before it started to work, but it started). When I connected my HD2, Windows found the driver, installed it and "SERIAL" changed to "USB" finally.

I confess I haven't read all answers so it might be a repetition but what I think is you might have made changes in your operating system, specially in SYSTEM REGISTRY that deals with communicating your devices chipset in particular mode, I think it is a QUALCOMM device, now you should do following things:-
First if you have registry backup, apply that and revert back to previous system registry or in case you have not, restore your OS to any previous restore point.
Then restart system, connect USB cable and start it in the particular mode you asked in question (vol down+power), it should try detecting driver.
If it can't, better solution to try finding QUALCOMM MSM driver for HD2 separately is to download windows active sync/htc sync, which might be having these drivers built in, download it and if it doesn't help, restart your system, then try again, it should work, in case doesn't PM me, as I won't be following this post, most probably even you ain't

[Q] Flashing under Windows 8 x64

Hello flashers!
I got HD2 in my hands to flash and it's pretty impossible to do any task related to it.
After pluggin in device switches to USB (in 3-color screen of course)
It says its cotulla hspl.
After some time I managed to get it in device manager - It's device name is now HTC USB Sync.
But not - any RUU including classical CustomRUU and extracted from HD2Toolkit are not possible to connect to device.
I tried other cables, installind Windows Mobile Device Center, other ports, other stuff and restarting PC (It helps sometimes to get it detected!)
Any custom stuff for windows 8 already?
Cheers people, and looking forward for reply!
